a poorly led Hamas not telling them in advance of the invasion

Considering all the lengthy planning that went into the Oct. 7th attack, I find this hard to believe

It seems like Iran and its proxies thought Israel would be pressured to back down, and the US wouldn't intervene - just like all the previous times that Israel was attacked

they thought wrong ...

Hamas trainesd in Iran. Unlikely that Iran wasn’t involved up to their necks. Take out their oil fields and refineries along with their nuclear sites.

Exactly. This time is different. The savages went too far. Hamas must and will be completely eliminated. If Hezbollah continues to annoy Israel, they will be also be eliminated. Iran understands this.
